I don't know if it's relevant, but I have installed the 1st Linux machine in the Technion's computer center (TCC), it's name was ccarik.technion.ac.il on my own personal machine with a TCC network card. Slackware, Kernel was 1.2.3. I was working with Oved Ben-Aroya at the time, and after a while Oved installed his own Linux on another machine, and used it as a backup DNS server for the technion during maintenance work on the network infrastructure. Slackware 2.2 with kernel 1.2.3 is dated April 1995, so that's around when it came to be. I'm not sure it was a first in any university's computer center, but it's definitely one of the first systems around. Oved, feel free to correct or add details about the second Linux in TCC. -- Arik ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
